About the author

Kit lives in Idaho with her husband and two sons. She enjoys writing several genres and subgenres. When she started publishing, dinosaurs roamed the earth, and authors had one pen name with their publisher. That was the name you wrote everything under, no matter how dissimilar. Thanks to advances in publishing, it's now easy to have more than one pen name, and many readers have come to expect a certain type of book experience from each author. The "brand," if you will.
Kit's catalog makes it difficult to tell what brand you're getting, so she has "co-authored" each type with a pen name, so you'll know what kind of book to expect.

February Random Read - #1608

I did not love this book. It was a verge of gothic romance, with shapeshifters and vampires. Not my favorite. I just could not get into it.

BRIEF SUMMARY
Anca has her normal life, by running a small shop and taking care of her mother in New York. Anca gets a visit from Demi, whom she’s never seen before. Demi claims her father is alive but is dying, and he needs to see her. Anca was lead to believe her father was dead for most of her life. On her journey to Corsova with Demi, she discovers who she really is.

THOUGHTS

I really enjoyed this book and the main characters, Anca and Demi. The moment the story started, it dives right into Anca and Demi’s encounter with each other. Anca is known to see the future and this is what makes the first two chapters peak my interest; her steamy and sexy visions of Demi. Both their chemistry was so exciting and made you feel giddy inside as well. I personally think it’s the way the author made them interact with each other that gave me that feeling. I really enjoyed the concept of the story, but I was in love with their love for each other and the erotic moments were a plus.

Throughout the story much was revealed about Anca’s past and future in Corsova, however, the author did keep the reader in suspense on the ritual and what the Blood Oath entailed. All was revealed in the end with the climax of the story that includes a female villain. Paranormal readers will really like this book; there is definitely a paranormal feel throughout the book as there are talks of vampire and wolves that ties in well with the Blood Oath. As for book two, I am really looking forward to it. We were introduced to Rica, very briefly, but he surely left an impact that leaves you a bit eager to read Blood Challenge book two.

In addition, to let the reader know, the book includes anal sex, so if that is not your interest I am letting the reader know.

Story: FAIR
Intimacy: SPICY / VERY GOOD
Enjoyment: GOOD

Excellent read I enjoyed every second of it Highly reccomend to paranormal erotica readers .

This has really been a shit reading day. I thought I'd give the erotic/adult romance genre a fair chance, but nothing I've read has swayed my opinion of it. This book is just as tedious as the others. If a story is going to have a lot of sex, I'd at least like a decent storyline to go with it.

1½ ★

Starting with the potentially interesting, if somewhat tired, premise of an heir to a throne that's been hidden away since birth to protect him/her from those who would seek to eliminate the threat to their own position, this book has a moderate success with the theme. For the first half, everything's going along fine, with a decent sort of pacing as Anca learns more and more about what she's been drug into, and the first big attack on her comes about the time you'd expect it to, and has pretty much the expected outcome. Anca of course resists her destiny at first, once she's told what it is, but also (of course) eventually comes around to accept it. I thought the acceptance came a bit too quickly and suddenly, but such was really only to be expected given the relatively shortness of the book. There are other conflicts thrown in, but they too are mostly overcome pretty easily such that whatever tension or suspense is generated at times is fairly short-lived. The villainess is eliminated (or is she?!) fairly easily really, and they all live happily ever after (maybe, maybe not...). There's just enough uncertainty about certain things at the end of the book to keep it from feeling like it was all tied up nice and pretty with a bow, and no doubt some things are going to come back to haunt (or maybe just annoy) them again in the future books of the series. All in all, a decent read, though not really one to write home about.

This was a freebie from Amazon Kindle.
This book was okay for me. I found it overwrought with so much angst, and the angst didn't really grab me. I found myself rolling my eyes more often than not.

The heroine has been raised in NYC by her mother, believing her father dead. It turns out dad is a vampire/wolf/something powerful and the king of a little known eastern European country. She is swept away by her soul mate/blood mate/loved her before he met her guy. She is scared! She is in luuuuust! She is in love! Her half-sister is trying to kill her! No one will tell her exactly what is going on.

This is the first in a series, and the series may improve as it proceeds, but I won't be finding out.

Anca has believed all her life that her biological father has been dead...
Demi comes into her shop demanding a reading and then afterwards tells her about her father, who is dying.

While Anca is visiting with her dying father (who doesn't appear to be dying according to Anca). She meets her half sister who is vindictive as all heck... Nikia only wants what she thinks is rightfully hers and does everything to scare and hurt Anca... Their father doesn't do anything to Nikia and lets Nikia get away with too much...

A bit intense in some spots!

This is a paranormal erotica book that is interesting but has some problems look at my comments as I go along in the book & discover them...

[Sarah Sorensen · Rating 4 out of 5]

I liked it. however the book cover really doesn't give the impression for what the book's about.

[Mara · Rating 1 out of 5]

I'm at loss to explain the high starred reviews. Every thing was so flat and boring to me than I stopped reading at the end. Yep, a few pages and I would have known what was going to happen. And you know what? There's no way I cared.

Nothing was even vaguely believable, and this is saying a lot in a PNR.

[Daph (Loving Books) · Rating 2 out of 5]

Didn't enjoy this one. It was all too easy, I felt like some things were not thought through and to top it all off most of the things were unbelievable.

Read this one because it was free for Kindle.

[Stacey · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was easy to read. A couple destined to meet from birth. A King who has to allow his daughter to live without knowledge of his existence to keep her safe. After the couple meet her history is told. Will she accept her birthright x

The story was pretty good. The sex scenes, while written well, were actually a distraction from the story.

[Mary Hartshorn · Rating 1 out of 5]

This was a different type of vampire series. Was not what I expected.
